It will be absolute carnage. Imagine a 5-way match of the day highlights jumping between the games. Almost want it to happen now. 4 way - Queen of the South are playing Partick Thistle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2008 we went into the final game in 3rd bottom place, ahead of Clyde on goal difference by one, but with both of us having scored the same number of goals. This meant that on the final day (although both teams won 3-0), had we won 2-1 at Firhill and Clyde beat bottom club Stirling 2-0 at home, we'd have had identical records in every respect. This would have lead to the absurd situation where Morton and Clyde would have had a play-off to see who avoided the play-off. Wonder how they'd squeeze this scenario in if it occurs? At the moment Queens have a 0 goal difference and the rest of us have shite goal differences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDust Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Unfair in that County will get the league trophy and will want to win in style or simply win with cameras and fans, trophy probably not in front of the cameras as they are obsessed with the nine being on schedule at nine, Qos fans will be at a very minimum. Remind me who it is unfair on ? Edited April 12, 2019 by MrDust 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereismillar Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 3 hours ago, Monkey Tennis said: This is one for supporters of all five of the clubs in danger of being relegated: If offered 9th place (meaning a berth in the play-offs) right now, would you take it? I'm guessing that the fact that 60% of the strugglers will do better than this, while only 20% will do worse, means most would say no. Form might come into it though, and it's obviously likely to shift a bit as the games run out. Ermm yes ! would have taken it from the start of the season to be honest . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thistledo Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Is Dobbie finished for the season then? Could be crucial if we need a win last game of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had that been the idea, he'd have given up three years ago when such a move might have made sense for both parties and didn't happen. You seem inordinately hung up on the fact that Dobbie once said he'd grown up as a Rangers fan. If we subjected all our playing squads to such scrutiny, we'd probably find a depressingly OF tinge to their allegiances, unless of course we'd at some point signed a load of English no marks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other player gets the twee "ONLY CLUB HE'S EVER WANTED TO PLAY FOR, TRUE LOVE STORY FOR THE BADGE" that we get from Dobbie. The reality is that he is a bluenose who says he'd love to play there instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 And he's only playing at Queens anyway for the huge slab of the wage budget that they've thrown at him as well. Which has worked out superbly for them over the past few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
